Whore of Babylon (Free verse) by oneglove
You call me naïve
I call it idealistic
You say the world is broke
I say it hasnât been fixed yet
I donât have all the answers
But I can see the problems
A complacent populous
Scared that change will rob them
Maybe politicians
They all start like me
Tired of the system
And our âdemocracyâ
But something always happens
In the marble towers
To reinforce
The way that men treat power
Jackals on the carcass
Of hopes and dreams
Fighting over scraps
Feeding the machine
The only way for change
Is for revolution
Not a call for anarchy
Just for a solution
